Caps for Screws on Christmas Tree Stand

thingiverse

The screws on some Christmas tree stands have end caps which can break or get lost. This group of four replacement caps should be printed with 100% infill for strength (the screws can generate huge crush loads). Tapping the hole can be done with a tap set if you have one. Alternatively, hold the screw over a candle until it is toasty, then screw it forcefully into the caps. The diameter of the end of the caps is exactly 19 mm. This is designed so that if you feel the need for even more support, you can epoxy an American penny onto the end of each cap.
